Notes
Tips to thicken, or thin, the pudding:To thicken: I prefer a thinner consistency for my coconut chia pudding. If this makes a pudding that is too thin for you, simply mix in 1 tablespoon of chia seeds to the prepared pudding. Let the mixture sit for at least 30 minutes until it has thickened.To thin: When the pudding is refrigerated it will gel to a pretty thick consistency. If you find this too thick, stir in 1/4 cup chosen milk to 1 cup pudding (you can warm the milk if you wish) and stir to combine.
